  • Blackburn with Darwen Template
    Community Rail in Lancashire James Syson – Chair ELCRP & CLCRP Transport Strategy Team Leader Blackburn with Darwen Council THE COMMUNITY RAIL STRATEGY The Community Rail Strategy, launched in November 2004, proposed practical and pragmatic ways of managing rural and local railways. The Strategy aims to offer ‘new life for local lines’ through a community driven approach - securing the future of these routes by putting them on a more sustainable footing. The four aims of the strategy are: • Increasing revenue • Reducing costs • Increasing community involvement • Stimulation of economic and social regeneration At the heart of the Strategy are Community Rail Partnerships (CRPs), which bring together local stakeholders to support the development of local rail services. CRP core membership is usually the lead local authority (often the county council) and the train operator and other commercial and non commercial members may be active according to local circumstances.
